Under current legislation in Italy, using the ''[[wikipedia:Cannabis|Cannabis]]'' plant for medical purposes requires administering it orally in the form of a decoction or as ''Cannabis'' oil extract. The scientific literature reports a number of preparation methods, mainly for oils, but no study is available that compares thoroughly, from a technological viewpoint, the ''Cannabis''-based formulations currently administered to patients. With this in mind, this research work aimed to carry out specific formulation studies to design standard operating procedures for the preparation and optimization of ''Cannabis''-based galenic formulations. Both decoctions and oils were prepared under different operating conditions to identify the most efficient process for the production of formulations with a high concentration of [[wikipedia:Decarboxylation|decarboxylated]] [[wikipedia:Tetrahydrocannabinol|delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol]] (THC) and [[wikipedia:Cannabidiol|cannabidiol]] (CBD). Regarding ''Cannabis'' oil, a new procedure has been developed that allows significantly higher recovery rates for THC and CBD compared with those for water-based extraction methods (decoction) and those for oil-based methods currently in use.

"Building open access to research (OAR) data infrastructure at NIST"

As a National Metrology Institute (NMI), the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) scientists, engineers, and technology experts conduct research across a full spectrum of physical science domains. NIST is a non-regulatory agency within the U.S. Department of Commerce with a mission to promote U.S. innovation and industrial competitiveness by advancing measurement science, standards, and technology in ways that enhance economic security and improve our quality of life. NIST research results in the production and distribution of standard reference materials, [[calibration services, and datasets. These are generated from a wide range of complex laboratory instrumentation, expert analyses, and calibration processes. In response to a government open data policy, and in collaboration with the broader research community, NIST has developed a federated Open Access to Research (OAR) scientific data infrastructure aligned with FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable, reusable) data principles.
